Write a poem (or letter) about a turning point in your life 8 months, 1 weeks ago
DEATH OF THE QUEEN, OFF WITH YOUR HEAD
The pandemic hit
I quit
All went south
Forever broken, I frown
Should have believed her
Setting the featuresYour what drove her
I thought it was over
I gave up on trying
Day after day I lie here dying
This is my life
Just give me the knife
Trapped in a loup
Someone remove this Damn Hula HoopWe move and move and moved again
Oh God, please tell me when
Strapped
I find myself trapped
Her world stolen
Lifeless in motion
Ripped from the streets
I will not be beatI run and hide
This is no fun, she cried
Locked up
Corrupt
Confined
Is this what you had in mind
Stories over, the end
My life, where I shall spendNever getting out
My veins a drought
Sweet and naive
Kidnapped, I believe
What right do you have
Attacked
Soon you will feel the impactThis insane world
Flipped and swirled
Pinned down
Should have never moved to this Godforsaken TownMother
I will not suffer
I will not die here with you
I know the truth
Forgotten
We shall not be in here rotting
Left behind
This is not what I designed
Unfound
I will rise from underground
Not a sound
Silence
My guidance
A protector
I Am Now the DirectorI will scream and shout
Whale my hands and feet about
Bring the world down with me
Open your eyes you shall see
For you will pay too
Your time is due
I will show you well
Oh boy am I gonna tellWho knew
The me that was me
I will forever be
This clock has awakened
Tick Tock Taken
My innocence
I am Magnificent
I will not bow
This is not allowed
My future scene
For I am QueenVoting is closed

London, I love this. Control is everything and when we lose it, it can be terrifying. I am glad that you regained the strength and control you felt was gone. I love that you said, “I Am Now The Director.” You have the power to achieve anything you put your mind to! You are confident and brave and you can do anything!!
